This is good. You right. Go ahead.
Yours fraternally,
JOHN D. CANDER,
3l7 State street, Bridgeport.
I'VE say we were surprised that Mr.. Candee
should thus publicly commend rebellion, secession
and schism. Evidently, had Mr. Candee been a
Charlestonian in 1861, he would have been as rank
a Secessionst and rebel as jeff Davis, and would
have justified the attack on Fort Sumpter as hotly
and fercely as he does the rebels of Hiram
lodge"

REGATTA OF THE YALE NAVY.
The Fall Races at Lake SaltOnstaIl
Great Success-The Junior Crew Beat
ON hv the RrasTn nm an-Ohher Races.

The Fall Races at Lake SaltOnstaIl a
Great Success-The Junior Crew Beat
en- by the Freshmen-Other Races.
All the Yale students turned out in force
to witness the annual fall regatta of the Yale
navy at Lake Saltonstall Saturday afternoon.
1t was nearly perfect day for rowing and
the races were the closest and most beautiful
ever seen at the lake.
In the contest for the Cleveland cup, single
scull race, W. 6. Bushnell '88, Irving Fisher
'eS and E. B. Terry 'SS entered. All rowed
in splendid form and came in very close to-
gether Bushnell crossed the line first in IL
minutes and 10 seconds, Fisher being second
in 1919 and Terry third in 1925. The
course was one and one-half mile with a
turn Terry '8S, who is brother OF Willis
Terry 85, one of Yales most famous athletes,
did exceeding well considering the time he
has been on the water. His fine rowing and
good time were pleasant surprise to every
one.
In the shell race between go Sheffield
Scientific school and '91 Academies the latter
were winners in minutes and so seconds,
'9Os following close in minutes. The course
was one mile Straight away.
The last race was an eight-oared shell race
between % ana ~ ACdu6nLcS, anu over Il
two-mile course. The latter crew was victor
ious, coming in in excellent form. Time,
II :42118, '89 being only seconds behind.
The Varsity crew has made draughts on the
junior crew, which accounts for their present
defeat.
Much credit is due to the good manage
ment of the races Saturday, which
eclipsed those of former years. All the races
were started on time and there were no de-
lays or accidents. This was by far the most
successful class regatta ever held under the
auspices of the Yale navy. The officers were:
For '89, G. w. Stewart; for go, G. A. Shell
don; for 81, E. L. Caldwell for go, G. R.
Carter. Referee, E. A. Stevenson, 'S8; start

RAILROAD NOTES.
Derby VS.. Naugatuck-VViu Retaltate-
Less Gaudys

DerbYVs. Naugatuck-Wiu Reta1tate-
Less Gsaudy.
Vice President Reed said on Saturday:
The Consolidated road will surely parallel
the Derby il the Derby parallels the Manga
tuck We have surveyed line from Wood
mont to Derby and the road can be built for
about $500, 900. There are no cuts to be
made and hardly any grade, making the
land most suitable for railroad purposes; but
it is probable that the line will not be built
unless the Derby commences operations
against the Naugatuck.
In regard to the contract between the two
roads being a violation of the interstate
law, the vice president announced his opin-
ion that it was, for the Consolidated road by
leasing the Naugatuck and assuming abso-
lutte control of it has virtually made it an
interstate road.
Commodore Vanderbilt once ordered all
the gaudy trappings on the Hudson River
railroad locomotives to be removed and the
engines to be made a. plain possible. It
took too much time for the engineers to
shine them up. The New Haven railroad
ran very gaudy locomotives out of the Grand
Central depot until recently. President
Clark believes that the commodore was
right and the gilt has been coated over with
black paint.

THE LATE DIR. BURTON.
A Tribute To His MemorY-The Flu
neral In Hartford To-Day.

A Tribute To His memOrY-The Fu-
neral In Hartford To-Day.
At the funeral services of Rev. DR.. Burton
in Hartford, at the Park church this after
noon, the chief address will probably be
made by President Dwight of Yale. Rev.
Drs. Burchell and Parker, of Hartford, will
also speak. The old Christ church choir
will sing the closing quartette. The Hart
ford Times of Saturday evening says DR..
Burton's death breaks little circle of close
and thorough personal friendship and mutu-
al esteem which existed in a special sense be-
tween the now departed pastor of Park
church and his clerical brethren, DR.. Parker
and Mr.. Twitchell. These three ministers of
the same faith and teaching were much to-
gether, and had much enjoyment of a
friendship which was as close and complete
as it was honorable to each. OF one heart
and one mind, these three, in a peculiar and
perhaps unthought of, but very real sense,
represented the advanced religious thought
of this community. They, more than
others, gave the tone and color to
what is spoken of in other cities as sttne
liberalism of the Hartford pulpit" This
quality undoubtedly derived its initial force
from the strong and restless mind of DIR.
Bushnel-who was as strong a thinker as
Connecticut theology has produced. Each
of the three ministers we have named was
much to the others; the trio could not be
broken by death without severe shock to the
survivors. If DR.. Burton was felt to be the
strongest pillar he himself did not 80 look
upon tin fact he, more than most other
men, was unconscious, seemingly, of his own
powers. He rarely brought his full mental
equipment into use-not from laziness, but
he seemed to have never felt or cared
to show his real strength. He had genuine
Representatives. that made him thoughtful
more for others than for himself. And he
had moods of depression in which he took
gloomy views of life and even of his own
worth in it. But for these occasional vista
lions it is not improbable that he would have
been gladder, brighter, stronger, more lib
eral preacher even than he was; certainly he
would have been a more equable, even one.
He felt freer in his Yale course of lectures
than in his pulpit, and at times he was at his
best there.

His Friends Glad to See Him After
His Visit Abroad.


Rev. E. s. Lines, rector of st. PauPs
church, who returned to his home in this
city on Friday from a trip abroad, was given
a warm reception at st. Paul's church Satur-
day night. All his parishioners and others
outside were present. He has been absent
for three months and during that time he
has visited Scotland, England, France, Bel
GUM, Holland and Switzerland. He says he
had delightful time. He is in the best of
health and was during all the time of his
journey. Services were held at the church
Saturday evening. The choir rendered seve-
raj selections. Mr.. Lines spoke briefly to
those present. He alluded to his journey
abroad and said he was glad once again to be
with his friends. Over the door leading to
the rector's study were the words "Welcome
Home" made of flowers. There was social
gathering afterward and all gathered around
him and took him by the hand showing that
they too were glad to see him back again.
Ice cream and cake were served. Many
prominent citizens were present.
